wheel/tire fitted, see page 154.
Fuel filler flapThe fuel filler flap is opened by means of a
button on the driver’s door. The flap is
spring-loaded, so it opens slightly automat-
ically when released.
Refueling, see page 134.
Opening the fuel filler
flap in an emergencyIf the fuel filler flap fails to open after the
button on the driver’s door has been
pressed, it can be opened manually from
inside the trunk.

A thin cable on the right-hand side in the
trunk is connected to the catch for the filler
flap. To open the flap, pull the yellow plastic
arrow on the end of the cable.
WARNING
Stow all tools carefully away after use, so
that they cannot get loose and cause
injury in the event of an accident.
